Testing Room Accommodations (in person only)
Students may face barriers, related to the functional limitations of their disability and/or medical condition, that may be accommodated by the number of students in a room, the location of a room or the accessibility of the room for mobility equipment/aids. SAS coordinates the appropriate rooms to accommodate students with testing room accommodations. Students writing in person/on campus tests/exams/quizzes are responsible to register to write these assessments with the SAS office.
Testing Room accommodations can include the following:
- Distraction reduced environment (for on campus or online proctored tests/exams/quizzes)
SAS caps the number of students in a Distraction Reduced room at 15
- Small group: 5 (if available) for in person tests written with SAS
- Separate room (if available) for in person tests written with SAS
A very rare accommodation; due to available space may not be available
- Proximity to washroom (for in person tests written with SAS)
- Wheelchair accessible room (for in person tests written with SAS)
The student may also have a testing room accommodation because they require the assistance of an invigilator for specific tasks and the distraction this would create for other students requires that the student be provided a separate room (ex. scribe/reader).
